Pspell problem
Ben_S:
Going off the email from your host, they don't know what they are talking about, unless you are on a VPS (which is unlikely, you would know if you were), you cannot install apspell and recompile php with pspell support.

I wouldn't think so. Also, if I could or should of done this, I know I would have seen something about that in here before!

Ok... I spent a bit of time on the phone with one of the lead support Techs. Its turned out that they have NO idea how to explain things in Alisha terms. :)
The way that dreamhost works, they have the severs configured so that I can install my own copy of PHP in my Root / home directory. This is to allow users to configure PHP and compile it with what ever they desire. This eliminates the possibility of a unstable flag or add on from knocking out 30 sites on that server. All security issues are directed at my sites only. This make sense to me now that I understand what he is talking about. Although, this leave me back at Square one! I have no PSpell, and no idea how to install PHP. Well I downloaded it, to look at, and I can't even unzip it! I am understanding that it is a 20 min install with a few UNIX commands.
So thats where I sit on this right now. Anyone intrested in installing PhP?? lol I am sure one day I will get around to figuring out how to unzip it, install it, and have spell checker! I know I abuse that button on here!
Thanks to Everyone that took the time to help me out here! :) it is GREATLY Appreciated! More than you will even know!
